Details:
The "temporary Files" section in the "Files" Tab under "Preferences" doesn't
seems to work
(or I don't know how to trigger it)
- I assume "Only delete packages which are no longer available" is the same
as executing the command "apt-get autoclean", however the latter reduces the
number of archived files substantially.
- Thinking it required "triggering" I tried the button "Delete Cached Package
Files" but this was disastrous as it did a "apt-get clean" and emptied the
archive.
Features to add if this is working:
- extended or optional inteligence with new versions/ sub versions eg. both
"kdebase-bin_4%3a3.5.8-0ubuntu2.2_i386.deb" and the older
"kdebase-bin_4%3a3.5.8-0ubuntu2_i386.deb" are kept whereas I want to delete
the older one.
- It would be great to have an option to temporarily remove "CD-ROM/DVD"
repositories from the lists so that the older versions are also deleted from
the archive (as they no longer appear in the lists)
